The Atlanta Wildcats are the first of several franchises the UFL has negotiated to purchase from the now-defunct National Gridiron League. The NGL consisted of twelve franchises throughout the southeast and the Midwest.
Located in the United States' ninth most populous metro area in Atlanta, Georgia, the Wildcats were established in 2019 as the Georgia Wildcats with the intent to initially kick off in Albany, Georgia. However, the franchise has since relocated to Atlanta and was renamed the Atlanta Wildcats. For additional details on the Wildcats may be found at atlwildcats.com.
